I do not typically strop after a shave. I normally strop the next morning or at least a couple hours after shaving.
I don't feel the need to to get the razor clean on a strop. I clean it well after shaving with tepid water - not hot, and wipe with a tissue
I found a long time ago that if I used hot water and rinsed well I would still have water spots on the razor immediately after. The steel would get hot and it would dry to spots right away.
Cooler water eliminated that.
